Berkeley Women in Black weekly vigil

Come and stand with us to protest the ongoing brutal occupation of Palestine and the ongoing illegal blockade against the people of Gaza. Israel murdered 1,434 people in Gaza last year, over 400 were children. Expansion of settlements and theft of land is ongoing in the West Bank. Tristan Anderson was critically injured Friday March 13 last year in the village of Ni’lin, near the central West Bank city of Ramallah, after Israeli forces shot him in the head with a tear-gas canister. He is still struggling to survive a year later.
We give 15 million dollars each day to Israel and Israel buys weapons such as gunship helicopters, F16 bombers, tanks and Catepillar bulldozers to use against the Palestinians.
Peace will never be achieved in the Middle East unless there is justice for the Palestinian people and an end to the occupation.
Call, fax or email the Consul General at the Israeli Consulate and let them know what you think of Israel's MASSACRE of the people of the Gaza Strip, the critical injuring of Tristan Anderson, the crushing to death of Rachel Corrie 7 years ago by an Israeli soldier in a U.S. made Catepillar bulldozer and the expansion of settlements in East Jerusalem and the West Bank.
Jerusalem should be a shared capital for all the people of Israel and Palestine.
